There are few luxury homes in Georgia quite as alluring as the Governor’s Mansion. Steeped in history as the home of the state’s incumbent leader, currently Brian Kemp, the Governor’s Mansion is a three-story, 30-room, Greek revival estate. Designed by Georgia architect A. Thomas Bradbury and built in 1967, on 18 acres of lush property, the Buckhead home officially opened in 1968.

Now Georgia residents interested in learning more about their state’s iconic mansion have two options: touring in person or making a virtual visit.

Either way, seeing what all the Governor’s Mansion has to offer has never been easier.

Georgia residents interested in taking a virtual tour of the mansion can do so within the interactive tour featured above and through the tour video provided below. The virtual tour, however, is just the beginning. For the full Governor’s Mansion experience, visitors should sign up for a public tour.

Visiting groups of 10 or more can sign up for a public tour here. Individuals and groups of less than 10 can sign up for a public tour here. Public tours are available on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from the beginning of Feb. to the end of Oct. between 10 a.m. and 11:30 a.m.

The public tour is a hybrid of guided and self-guided, as docents will be stationed in each room to offer information about each historic collection.

“Many of our docents have volunteered at the Governor’s Mansion under several Governors and are as much a part of the tour as the collection itself,” the mansion’s tour page reported.

Lester Maddox was the first governor to live at the Governor’s Mansion, followed by Jimmy Carter, George Busbee, Joe Frank Harris, Zell Miller, Roy Barnes, Sonny Perdue, Nathan Deal, and currently Brian Kemp. The mansion features 24-foot-high Doric columns made of California redwoods, collections of art and furnishings assembled by the fine arts committee and does not change from one administration to the next.
